The mixed-use project would also include a reduction in commercial space from 195,094 square feet to 139,752 square feet and an increase in proposed office space from 75,000 to 100,000 square feet.

Under the revised plan, the proposed apartment complex would increase from 168 units to 372 units with roughly 20% of units being earmarked for affordable housing.

According to city documents, the proposed Gateway project would now include roughly 75 affordable housing units within the apartment complex. Affordable units would include 31 studio units, 34 one-bedroom units and 10 two-bedroom units throughout the complex.
